‘A completely different space’: Teachers' perspectives on disadvantage, access to nature and outdoor learning

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examined teachers' perspectives on how children benefit from time in nature, how disadvantage shapes access and the role of schools in facilitating such access. Drawing on interviews conducted in 2022 with 25 UK primary school teachers who participated in Generation Wild, a nature connection programme for schools in economically ...

Sudden Shift From Drought to Flood May Be Infrequent in Debris‐Flow Events in Southwest China: Evidence From Antecedent Hydrometeorological Fingerprints

Atmospheric Science Letters
Debris flows are one of the most destructive mass‐movement processes. Previous studies have shown that debris‐flow occurrence may be related to antecedent higher temperatures or droughts, yet a comprehensive and objective regional understanding is still ...

Quality Enhancement of Glacier Velocity Time Series via Phase-Space Reconstruction

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
Accurate estimation of glacier surface velocity using the pixel offset tracking small baseline subset (PO-SBAS) technique depends critically on the quality of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) offset observations. However, the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of

Civilising pedagogies: An ethnography of instructional and regulative discourses in government schools in Delhi, India

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Over the years, surveys and data on learning outcomes have consistently shown inadequate levels of learning in schools in India, witnessing a further decline in recent years. Studies within the sociology of education have consistently highlighted the overarching role of class and caste on learning outcomes in schools. Neoliberal policy reforms

Bank Retreat Mechanisms Driven by Debris Flow Surges: A Parameterized Model Based on the Results of Physical Experiments

Water Resources Research
Lateral erosion is a critical factor that influences the formation and amplification of debris flows. However, our understanding of the bank retreat process in debris flow channels is limited, which limits the evaluation of debris flow magnitudes and the

Improving the learning experience in an undergraduate course on microbial metabolism by using an illustrated story

Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, Volume 53, Issue 2, Page 131-141, March/April 2025.
Abstract In the classroom, metabolism is often approached and received as a mundane exercise in memorization. Teaching metabolism also faces the challenge of negative perceptions that can impede learning. We sought to improve the learning experience in an undergraduate lecture course on microbial metabolism by implementing an illustrated story that ...

Phylogenomics and Biogeography of the Eastern Asian–Eastern North American Disjunct Genus Hylodesmum (Fabaceae)

Biological Diversity, EarlyView.
Integrating data from plastid genomes, nrDNA, and 353 low‐copy nuclear genes, this study establishes a robust phylogenetic framework for Hylodesmum. This framework supports a taxonomic revision recognizing 18 species and reveals a complex pattern of bidirectional EA–ENA dispersal, with mammals as a plausible dispersal agent. ABSTRACT Phylogenomics with

Flood risk modelling by the synergistic approach of machine learning and best-worst method in Indus Kohistan, Western Himalaya

Geomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk
Flood risk mapping is essential for effective mitigation and planning. In this study, we propose a novel synergistic approach for flood risk mapping in Indus Kohistan, Pakistan, by integrating machine learning (ML) models and the best-worst method (BWM).
